some bullshit* went down in our game yesterday and as a player it was the funniest thing in the world and i was literally crying with laughter but my character was Not down to clown and thinks the rest of the party are Fucked Up. normally, this wouldn't be good But i'd already been thinking about swapping characters so we can have a healer and this does provide the perfect opportunity for him to dip and a new character to be introduced.
*we went to this cave area so one of our member could catch fish with his new pole and so we could harvest mushrooms to make some money and came across a group who had been robbed and brutally killed. now the murder and death didn't freak my pc out bcs his background is criminal and he was somebody who killed kinda indiscriminately for this criminal organization. BUT he has since had a complete change of heart and is actively trying to be a better person. so what DID freak him out was that there was a body floating in the water with fish nibbling at it. and instead of leaving and going to report the bodies so they could be dealt with properly**, two of the party decided to fish anyway, basically using the body as bait, with one literally diving in next to the body. another didn't fish but did want to sit around and camp out there waiting for the room to reset*** so he could go on and harvest mushrooms and see what happens to the bodies. so my pc literally just walked out and left them there (to be fair, the fourth pc also thought the goings on were fucked up but was very quiet at the time)
** the premise of the campaign setting is that this mysterious tower showed up out of the blue one day and it's basically full of portals that take you to the different "levels." there's one main group that operates in the tower that doesn't Control what goes on but do act as guides and try to keep people from just dying willy nilly. i assume they would at least collect the bodies and clean up
***part of the deal with the tower is that each level "resets" after a few hours and resources (and enemies) respawn. we know (bcs we saw the same group camping out in this cave the day before) that you can stay through resets and be unchanged, but his theory is that once you're dead, you'll basically disappear when the room resets. my theory is that it's only items and beings that are native to the tower that reset and the bodies would still be there, but we ended the session before either the room reset or i told anybody else.
